Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Web Inspector at 3.9 against Accessible Colors's 1.0. Web Inspector also leads on ratings volume (160 vs 1) and chart position (#58 vs unranked). Accessible Colors's advantage is update cadence (daily vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
